Hello from Reading, Uk
Hi, I've been back into cycling for maybe 10 years now after a break of some decades when I cycled in my school days. Now I occasionally cycle to work and quite often cycle with my wife and friends at weekends.
I normally ride a Ridgeback Supernova hybrid, but have recently ebay'd a 1956 Raleigh roadster, model to be determined - built in the year of my birth and in still in rideable condition. Am now spending far too much time researching the bike and it's components on the 'net and I'm looking forward to spending more time riding it.
Cheers. Kevin.

Hello Kevin, I'm another child of 1956, good to have another UK member join in here. Welcome to BF, we have several forums that may interest you, I hang out at 50+ usually, it is a great group of members that share the love of cycling, drop in with us and see what you think. Our Classic and Vintage Forum would love to see some pictures of the Raleigh, that bike has its own following for a good reason. You might enjoy the Hybrid and Commuter forums, also. Ride Lots and Ride Safe.
